ADHD / Learning - Toronto - Other Universities

<p>boondocks, all universities will have accomodations possible for students who require Disability Services. For example, here is the page for Queen’s University:</p>

<p>[About</a> Disability Services | HCDS | Queen’s University](<a href=“http://www.queensu.ca/hcds/ds/about/index.html]About”>http://www.queensu.ca/hcds/ds/about/index.html)</p>

<p>If you check the websites of the schools you’re interested in, you can likely find a similar page for each. I don’t know if all Canadian schools require SATs but for those that do, I’m afraid he is going to have to increase his scores significantly, especially for Engineering, which routinely has one of the highest entrance requirements at Canadian schools. Queen’s wouldn’t be too far from Vt., it’s about half way between Toronto and Montreal. Have a look at the OUAC site, which is how he will have to apply to Ontario schools.</p>

<p>There should be links there to all schools, which will give you the chance to look at each website and see which ones offer Engineering programs. One thing to keep in mind is that Canadian schools, generally speaking, are going to require more independence and self-sufficiency than American schools do. There is much less hand-holding and nurturing than you would usually find at many American schools. This may or may not be an issue for your son but it’s best to be fully informed, nonetheless. Best of luck to you, and to him. We are also dual citizens and three of my five Ds attended college in Canada. All had a wonderful experience, and received as good an education as my two Ds who attended U.S. colleges (including one who was at an Ivy), for a fraction of the cost.</p>
